One month to go!

Perfect timing for the Exige to be away at the garage with electrical gremlins. Fingers crossed she'll be sorted in time!!

Not long left at all, and I've gotta change the engine, new brakes, tyres and oil cooler yet. Best get started.

Going to book a Ferry also, £100 cheaper than EuroTunnel. Will heading out there on the 30th smile

Is there anybody flying out on the 1st who wants to share a cab from Cologne airport? Happy to chip in €40 for a lift if somebody is hiring a car also.

Or walk twenty yards and jump in my car for the trip FOC. OK I get it, you'd rather fly.

Getting excited now! biggrin

Here's hoping my replacement wheels will stay on the car after a miserable outing at Oulton last week due to failure of all four plastic spigot rings! furious

Is anybody taking a MTB with them? I think I may take mine, space permitting. smile

Won't have space for MTB and road bike, but might hire MTB from Radsport Breuer opposite the Rewe in Adenau.

Wouldn't mind a lap through the woods smile

So I'm coming, representing PH! We're also going to be bringing along a journo from a broadsheet who's doing a - whisper it - 'lifestyle' immersion piece (can't believe I just wrote that) on life as a PHer and why so many of us devote so much time and money on driving out to a German toll road. And then wittering on about it online.

He and snapper will be around Wednesday, Wednesday night and Thursday morning so it'd be great to introduce him to some PHers who can enthuse about the 'ring and generally introduce him to the culture of the place. This may involve a) wittering away at him with amusing anecdotes about your experiences b) taking him out in your car and scaring the living st out of him c) discussing the above over beer and steak at a popular local eatery on the Wednesday night.

If you'd like to play a part in this then by all means make yourself known ahead of the event by dropping me a line or simply coming and finding me on the day. I'll be in an F-Type R Coupe, journo, snapper and PR lady in tow. Basically we're out to show him a good time (not like that) and any participation in that (really not like that) would be much appreciated.

If, on the other hand, you'd like to avoid any public appearances or cameos in his story you can use the above intel to give us a wide berth and enjoy your DN experience in peace!

Cheers!

Dan
